Gibson Custom 1964 ES-335 Reissue Bigsby Custom Made Plate, Murphy Lab Light Aged Vintage Burst

Weight: 8lb 7oz

Fall in love with one of the coolest ES-335 configurations—complete with a “Custom Made” plaque and Bigsby®. This is a guitar with so much character and personality that you’ll want to play it every day. This ES-335 distills everything great about the vintage model, even down to the “Custom Made” plaque that may just be the coolest piece of plastic that Gibson ever made.

The first sunburst ES-335 to get the Murphy Lab treatment, this Light Aged Vintage Burst model utilizes sharp horn cutaways, a medium C-shape neck profile scanned from originals, small block inlays, vintage-style parts, and rolled binding for a comfortable lived-in feel. Electronics include two unpotted Custombucker pickups, CTS® 500k audio taper potentiometers, and Black Cat tone capacitors. To complete the vintage experience, it comes in a Lifton™ black/yellow hardshell case.
